Do These Things Actually Work?

[Super Kal]

okay, I'm a Christian, and even I found that a little disturbing.

That strip makes me want to quote the Bible.

So here it is:

Jesus wept.

 

[Super Kal]

lol, the shortest verse of the bible...

Oh man, I love Chick tracts. A lot of them are way over the top, but I think there have been thousands of conversions because of them.

This is my favorite.

"Hey! Look! A stairway to the moon!"
"I've always wanted to suffocate in the vacuum of space! Let's go!"

the kids obviously kill themselves in that

I read the comic strip waiting for the punchline. I read it. About halfway through I saw something that could be a setup, and by the end there was no delivery. Until I realized me realizing I just wasted three minutes of my life reading that crap is the punchline. Damn those sumb**ches, not spoon feeding you a joke.

I was force-fed these ridiculous things back in the 80's. Some of 'em are a real hoot.

Dark Dungeons, the one about the evils of Dungeons & Dragons (the game books contain spells that can give you mind control powers, forcing your parents to buy you more game books! And woe unto you if your character dies in-game, because according to Jack T. Chick, you will die as well, presumably sacrificed by your fellow players. Seriously...yeah...they'll guilt you into suicide.)

The Death Cookie, cuz Catholics and their wafers are evil!

And some of these are new..look at the synopsis for this one:

Gun Slinger
A hired killer trusts Christ and, at death, goes to heaven. But the law-abiding marshal who hunted him rejects Christ and goes to hell. Clearly shows that salvation is through grace, not works.

Chick Publications is just another group of psychopaths who've taken it upon themselves to shepherd everyone to Heaven, but only by their made-up rules.

These books used to always have a page urging the reader (and presumably, the JCT Faithful,) to leave these foul, hate-mongering booklets everywhere you go...hotel rooms, public bathrooms, phone booths!

I hope littering is a sin and these jerks-offs burn for it.

Apologies for the poorly thought out rant. That company just pisses me off.

 

[Pussy Galore]

If Jesus bleeding on those kids?

 

[Super Kal]

yeah, he is... it's a bit morbid, if you ask me.

I like this one too.

I think it's time that we, as a group, composed the Anit-Chick-Tract.

AKA a Chick Tract about the creators of the Chick Tract leading people down a false path towards enlightenment and how they will meet a horrible end at the hands of the people they seek to deceive.

 

[Dew k. Mosi]

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

 

[Man-Thing]

First Muslims, now secularist are getting ticked off at CARTOONS.

 

[Super Kal]

this is really morbid... especially that last one.

 

[Cyclops]

Who's getting ticked off?

 

[Pussy Galore]

I like how Charles has his hand on his hip.

 

[Man-Thing]

Who's getting ticked off?

well, these posts don't seem to jolly.

Thats the craziest **** on earth, I hope that teacher gets fired.

y'know, if God was so kind to send someone down to Earth to live as a real person, then why send your son instead of yourself? Sounds like like he's saying "here, YOU go...and, uh....tell them I said to behave or else".

Dude should've went down himself if he's so almighty.

Hoping that someone burns in hell over cartoons??? Yeah, jolly good times.

 

[Cyclops]

Well, hey, we here at the Hype hope people die and burn in hell all the time. It's the Hype National Pasttime.

I want to punch the writers in the face out of shame

 

[Super Kal]

why? what's wrong with it?

I know, but still it's a cartoon.

I saw an athiest version of a chick tract not long ago, and it had a guy in the ground dead- and that's all that happened. It didn't tick me off, I actually thought it was kinda funny on there part.

I saw a sign once and it was a Christian church with a sign that said "Jesus Saves". Across the road, there was a Jewish Synagogue with a sign that said "Moses invests". I thought that was funny too.

What you simplistically label cartoons I call dangerously crazed propaganda. But whatever.

I already admitted that I went on a bit of a rant.

Then again, you didn't quite live the life I did during the 80's. I find these things immensely disturbing for reasons you can't fathom.

So there you go.

yeah, I understand and it sucks if you were actually "force fed" these things. I just think it would be best not to look at them though, but I can understand that too.
